Small (15mm) patches of red dry skin on my back.

Could be fungal, but don’t look like ringworm. Almost symmetrical (as in both just above my shoulder blades). Not itchy. I am not prone to dry skin or eczema at all.
Not where my bra straps are, but could be something rubbing possibly. Don’t seem to be improving with moisturiser.
Any ideas? Maybe I’ll try an anti fungal just in case?

Please see your GP. It could also be skin cancer. Just err on the side of caution.
